Baba Ghanoush

I have purchased a soil testing kit and today was going to test the soil in my home gardens, worm castings from homemade compost and that from cow dung. But I forgot, so it the test will need to wait till another day.

But I did get outside today to work on the gardens. While I was doing that a Catholic Worker friend of old came by to say hello. We had a nice conversation since we share a basic philosophy of looking at life. She admired the gardens, especially the tomato, basil and eggplant garden in front of the house.

That garden produced more tomatoes and eggplant today. In fact that front lawn garden was a major contributor of our dinner tonight. Its tomatoes and basil were used by my wife to make her homemade Italian pasta sauce and were also used, along with some garden greens, in the salad. Eggplants from the front lawn garden were used to make Baba Ghanoush, a Middle Eastern dish.

So no testing of the garden soil today but we did get a good taste of the garden.
